Why a sedan cannot do it
A midsize sedan holds about four ordinary cases. A standard Balikbayan box is bulkier than a suitcase and does not stack the way luggage does, so the real capacity is lower than the number suggests.
Two passengers with three boxes and their own luggage is already past what a sedan will take, which is how families end up booking two cars and paying twice.
What actually fits
Our full-size SUV and Transit van take Balikbayan boxes alongside passengers and their personal luggage — how many depends on how many people are travelling.
For larger groups, a group splitting boxes between them.
Planning the run
Give us the box count when you book, not on the day. Changing vehicle class before dispatch costs nothing; changing it at the kerb at 4am is a different conversation.
Allow four hours before an international departure. The International Terminal check-in for Manila flights moves slowly, and oversized items add time at the counter.
- Tell us the box count and the passenger count
- Confirm your airline's oversize and weight limits first
- Label everything before the driver arrives
- Allow four hours for an international departure
